What's the expected result?

[bluca]

are you setting up/using the same socket from multiple threads?

[Rensj]

Thanks bluca for the reply. The same dealer client is used by multiple threads in this case.

[bluca]

As the documentation says, that is not supported and it's a bug in the application.

[Rensj]

Thank you bluca. Changed the code to seperate client as per the threads, and this issue was not observed any more.
